Chapter 1362 1464. Take care

Except for a few people in waiter uniforms, there were only Huang Xiaoming and AB in the cafe. It was obvious that the cafe had been booked by Huang Xiaoming.

After the three of them sat down, Huang Xiaoming waved to the waiter beside him.

"Make a pot of coffee with the coffee beans I brought."

After Huang Xiaoming gave the order, he smiled and explained to Nie Wei: "A friend of mine went on a business trip to Jamaica and bought the most authentic Blue Mountain coffee beans there. After returning home, he gave me a bag. I don't usually drink coffee, but my wife AB often drinks it and said that the bag of coffee beans is very good."

AB on the side smiled and nodded at Nie Wei, as if agreeing with Huang Xiaoming's words.

Nie Wei smiled and nodded in response. He couldn't say that he liked or disliked this woman. He was just unfamiliar with her. Except for the time when they clinked glasses and said a few words at Huang Xiaoming's wedding, they were just nodding acquaintances at other times.

However, he had heard many colleagues mention this female star. They had good reviews. She was very nice and had no temper.

In Nie Wei's opinion, these are all manifestations of being a person. As for being an actress, the evaluation of this female star is not very good. There is no need to ask colleagues specifically. Just go online and you can find no less than a million negative reviews.

So Nie Wei felt a little uncomfortable when he saw Huang Xiaoming treating him to coffee and bringing AB with him.

The coffee was brewed quickly. The waiter brought three small cups of coffee. Nie Wei took one cup, added sugar cubes and milk, stirred it slightly, and then took a small sip. He felt that the taste was indeed better than the Blue Mountain he usually drank. However, Nie Wei didn't know how good it was. He didn't like drinking coffee at all.

The taste of Blue Mountain is moderate and not very bitter. Although Nie Wei doesn't like it, he doesn't resist it. The three of them drank coffee, and no one spoke first for a while.

However, in this stalemate atmosphere, the pressure is actually all on Huang Xiaoming and AB.

Nie Wei was reluctant to speak, and Huang Xiaoming could see Nie Wei's attitude. However, when he thought of his wife's "well-behaved" behavior in the past few days, and Huang Xiaoming had already boasted, he really had to bite the bullet and speak.

"Nie Wei, in addition to inviting you to drink coffee today, I do have something to ask you. Aren't you casting for your new movie? Are there any roles suitable for AB?" Huang Xiaoming asked.

Nie Wei glanced at Huang Xiaoming, then at AB who was eager on the side, and replied with a smile: "The heroine has been confirmed to be Yuanquan, you don't know that?"

Huang Xiaoming understood as soon as he heard it. This was Nie Wei's implicit rejection of him. Just as he was about to say something, AB on the side suddenly hurriedly explained: "Mr. Nie, I can play a supporting role, a small role is fine, I just want to train myself in your crew."

When Nie Wei heard this, he couldn't help showing a surprised expression for a moment.

Although AB's professional ability is not very good, her popularity is very high. In recent years, whether it is filming movies or TV series, she is always the heroine. This is why Nie Wei used the saying that the heroine has someone to implicitly reject her.

But what Nie Wei didn't expect was that AB actually put her attitude so low this time, not asking for a ranking, and even not asking for a role.

Huang Xiaoming on the side also begged at this moment: "Nie Wei, I also told her that after filming under your hands, her acting skills will be greatly improved, and she also wants to learn from you."

"That's right, I am just for the purpose of learning, so I can accept any role, and I can not ask for pay, just a friendly performance." AB immediately followed, and then looked at Nie Wei pleadingly.

Nie Wei smiled, this couple, singing the same tune, cooperated quite tacitly.

Although AB's attitude was very low, Nie Wei was still not ready to agree. After all, he was not without actors to use, why did he have to use AB?

Nie Wei's movies don't need any popular actors to support their popularity, because he himself is the biggest signboard, just like when people mention Cameron's movies, they always think about what the content of the movie is, whether Cameron has new ideas, or whether more advanced film technology has been used in the new movie.

Actors are often ignored. Even if some audiences think of them, they will only think, wow, this actor is really lucky to be able to star in Cameron's movie.

Nie Wei is the same. When people watch Nie Wei's movies, they also pay more attention to the movie itself. As for who the co-actors are, except for the fans of the actors, other ordinary people don't care.

And Nie Wei has a little worry, that is, AB's fame is likely to have a counterproductive effect.

In recent years, domestic audiences have gradually fallen into a state of "preconceived", that is, no matter how the movie or TV series is, if there are artists with poor professional reputations like AB in the starring lineup, many people will subconsciously think that this TV series or movie is a bad movie.

Because they think that only bad movies will find these actors to act, because all the movies and TV series these actors have filmed are bad movies.

Nie Wei disagreed with this, and he hated those viewers who didn't care and gave bad reviews to movies and TV series just by looking at the cast list. In Nie Wei's opinion, these people were not the audience, but black fans who had lost their minds.

But then again, Nie Wei didn't agree with or like these people, but he had to worry about the influence of these people, because these people were definitely not a minority at present, and Nie Wei was not sure he could change their minds.

AB should be seeking a role in the cabin crew, which is actually a very smart choice, because except for the heroine Bi Nan, the roles of the other flight attendants are similar, but the characters are slightly different, and basically the roles are filmed together.

And the performance difficulty of these roles is not high, which is indeed suitable for actors with average acting skills.

AB should feel that she can play any of these roles, so she wants to join the crew, and then use Nie Wei's movie to whitewash her reputation.

Because from her debut to now, Nie Wei has not made any movie with a score lower than seven points, especially in recent years, all her movies can be ranked in the IMDB TOP250, and some can even be ranked in the TOP10. She doesn't believe that such a strong director can be brought down by her.

In fact, AB has also been praised, such as the movie "Flower Field Wedding 2010". The movie itself has a general reputation and is only rated 5.1 on the Stars Film Review website, but the stuttering princess played by AB gives people a bright feeling. Many fans like her because of this movie.

In the subsequent movies such as "Mojin: The Lost Legend" and "Black and White", she played the role of a vase and was actually quite qualified.

In Nie Wei's opinion, the girl's reputation suddenly deteriorated later, which was actually because she was developing in the wrong direction, or she began to be arrogant. She was not satisfied with playing such a vase role, but her ability was not enough. Several dramas in which she played the leading role exposed her shortcomings of professional ability, and her reputation naturally took a sharp turn and slid to the bottom.

To put it bluntly, it was the result of overestimating one's own abilities.

This is fundamentally different from the decline in Huang Xiaoming's reputation. Huang Xiaoming was too focused on interpersonal relationships and would repay a favor. He took on a lot of bad movies, which led to a decline in his reputation, but his own business level was actually not bad. But in the final analysis, no matter what the reason was, the final result of the couple was the same.

Due to Huang Xiaoming's face, Nie Wei couldn't refuse directly. After thinking about it, he suddenly had an idea.

"Well, if you really want to practice your acting skills, I do have a role, but it's not a flight attendant in the cabin crew, but the wife of the second captain. It's just that there are not many scenes, maybe only a few shots."

AB's face froze. She could hear that this role was probably not even a supporting actress.

Just as she was hesitating, she suddenly felt someone kicking her thigh under the table. She subconsciously looked at her husband Huang Xiaoming and found that Huang Xiaoming was tapping the table lightly with his hand.

With a tacit understanding, AB immediately understood what Huang Xiaoming meant and quickly replied: "Director, give this role to me."

Nie Wei almost spit out the coffee in his mouth when he heard this.

He wondered if there was something wrong with his expression. This kind of role would be at the back of the cast, and it would only have a few more scenes than passers-by A, B, and C. Why was AB willing to play it?

Nie Wei smiled bitterly in his heart. Words are spoken and water is spilled. If the other party is willing to take the role he gave, can he take it back immediately?

Fortunately, this role is not important, and even if it is played mediocrely, it will not harm the movie itself.

However, Nie Wei felt like a fly suddenly appeared in a pot of delicious porridge. He was in a bad mood and his face became more serious.

"AB, this is a small role, but I hope you don't treat it as a small role. You think you can pass it by just acting casually. This is impossible in my crew. Since you also said that you came with the purpose of learning, then you must meet my requirements in the crew at that time. You can't back down because it's difficult. Do you understand?"

Nie Wei's sudden stern attitude scared AB, and she quickly promised that she would take this role seriously.

Of course, AB still didn't agree with it. For such a small role, she felt that even if her acting skills were a little worse, there would be no problem in performing. Even if Nie Wei said something harsh, could he embarrass herself with such a small role?

But when she thought about it, she didn't see Huang Xiaoming's face pale, as if he recalled some terrible memories.

Nie Wei finished his coffee and left. AB was relieved to see Nie Wei leave.

During the conversation just now, although Nie Wei seemed to be very easy to talk to most of the time, AB felt that the pressure in her heart was particularly great. In front of Nie Wei, she felt very restrained and dared not breathe.

And she vaguely realized that Nie Wei did not seem to have a good impression of her, and he seemed a little perfunctory during the conversation.

"Wife, read the script more during this period. No matter how small the role is, you must analyze it carefully. I will also help you to rehearse. In short, you must take the most serious attitude. Do you understand?" Just when AB was thinking about Nie Wei, Huang Xiaoming, who was sitting next to him, suddenly said.

AB was stunned for a moment, then smiled and said: "Husband, do you need to be so serious? I feel that your current state is like an idiom. What is it called? By the way, it is like facing a great enemy."

Huang Xiaoming's face was pale for a while, and he said seriously: "Don't laugh, I'm not kidding you, I'm serious."

"Why are you so serious? I'm not kidding either." AB was a little unhappy. She didn't understand why her husband suddenly looked like this. Is there any mystery in that role?

Huang Xiaoming saw AB's look and knew that she still didn't listen to what he said.

If it had been anyone else, Huang Xiaoming wouldn't have bothered to say it, but this was his wife. If she suffered on the set, he would be the one to suffer when she came back.

So Huang Xiaoming patiently explained to AB very seriously: "Don't take Nie Wei's last words as just words. Since he said that, if you can't do it then, he will definitely torture you. "

AB couldn't help being happy when he heard this: "Why is she torturing me? Isn't it possible to torture me? She can only scold me a few times, and for such a small role, I will definitely be fine."

Huang Xiaoming smiled bitterly and sighed, and said, "I wish I really scolded you."

"Let me tell you one thing. I have collaborated with Nie Wei on a play before. As Jiang Xin knows, she was not satisfied with her performance as Nie Wei in one scene. To be honest, I think this scene should have been over a long time ago, but Nie Wei just couldn't do it, and kept asking Jiang Xin to perform it over and over again. Jiang Xin had to perform it for a whole day, and it took more than fifty performances. "

"And Jiang Xin only played a small supporting role in that movie."

Seeing AB's face gradually turning pale, Huang Xiaoming knew that the other party had finally listened, and said: "If you really think that a small role can be played casually, I can tell you that it is absolutely impossible. If Nie Wei is not satisfied, , it’s possible for you to take pictures hundreds of times.”

"Really or not? No way, because it's such a small role..."

"Nie Wei once said that a movie is like a precision watch, and the characters are the gears. Don't look down on the small characters, because it is the small characters that set off the big characters, so no matter how small the gears are, they are still important. "

Speaking of this, Huang Xiaoming said with emotion: "Perhaps this is the reason for his current achievements. This is a director who truly strives for excellence. You will understand it when you join the team."

AB's expression finally changed, and he felt a little uneasy. He took Huang Xiaoming's hand and said, "After I receive the script tomorrow, please accompany me more on the scenes."

Although Nie Wei agreed to let AB join the group, she had no idea of ​​letting her be a related party.

Of course, he didn't pay too much attention to the actress. When she joined the crew, Nie Wei would naturally have the means to help her reach the level he wanted.

For Nie Wei, the most important thing at the moment is to determine which female artists the other stewardess actors in the flight crew should choose.
